I can’t get my handheld to recognize my handwriting.

Not all applications or screens have menus. Try changing to a different application.

For your handheld to recognize handwriting input with the stylus, you need to use Graffiti writing. See “Using Graffiti writing to enter data” in Chapter 2.

Make the Graffiti character strokes in the Graffiti writing area, not on the display part of the screen.

Write Graffiti strokes for letters in the left-hand side, and the strokes for numbers in the right-hand side of the Graffiti writing area.

Make sure that Graffiti is not shifted into extended or punctuation modes. See “Using Graffiti writing to enter data” in Chapter 2.

See “Graffiti tips” in Chapter 2 for tips on increasing your accuracy when you write Graffiti characters.
